Chapter 452: The Master of Death

Don't say that, Severus! You should be lenient with an old man, I sometimes make mistakes..."Regarding the Three Hallows, Dumbledore did not explain in detail, but teased.

Snape looked at him with a sneer, but soon remembered something, and his face changed, staring at the old man in front of him suspiciously.

"That's not right! Your injuries were a few days ago, otherwise they wouldn't have gotten worse to this extent, but I just met you two days ago—" Snape asked, narrowing his eyes.

"I was injured and couldn't meet anyone else." Dumbledore explained vaguely, stroking the golden ring, staring at the burnt hollow and broken cracks in the ring.

It had taken him a long time to try countless ways to find a way to destroy the Horcrux - and that was the Fire Charm!

He hadn't used dark magic in decades, and he had almost forgotten how it was supposed to be used...

"So the person I met two days ago wasn't really you?" Snape's face was unsightly.

Although Dumbledore didn't say who it was, Snape filtered the possible candidates in his mind, and combined with the other party's recent bizarre behavior, he quickly came to a conclusion.

"Is it Ivan Hals? That little ghost? He pretended to be you with a polyjuice potion, at your behest? Snape affirmed.

Praising yourself and adding hundreds of points to Gryffindor House is a lot like what Ivan Hals would do.

The corners of Snape's mouth twitched, and he remembered that two days ago he had run in front of the other party to complain...

But... How did he know about that agreement?

Snape was puzzled, this matter should only be known to him and Dumbledore.

Snape, however, thought back to Ivan's reply to him.

What the other party seems to say is: our agreement has always been valid!

Snape's face darkened suddenly, he understood that he had been tricked, and the other party seemed to answer his question, but he didn't say anything at all...

"What? Did something happen? Dumbledore noticed that Snape's face was not good-looking, and raised an eyebrow and asked.

Snape wasn't ready to talk about his dark history, but instead shifted his words, questioning Dumbledore's child's play that he had asked a child who hadn't yet graduated to take on the role of the headmaster's agent...

"But he managed to fool Minister of Magic, Fudge, and us professors, and it seems that kid is better suited for the headmaster position than you," Snape said sneeringly.

Dumbledore didn't pay attention to Snape's sarcastic words, but looked very happy, and he spoke.

"Do you think so? Severus? That's the right thing to say! When it came to choosing a surrogate, I thought I would have you or Minerva coming, but I think the kids might be looking forward to a different headmaster..."

Despite all that, Dumbledore knew very well that neither McGonagall nor Snape were fit to act as agents.

Although McGonagall is powerful and experienced in handling things, her personality tends to be conservative and rigid, unlike Ivan's out-of-the-box and rules-free behavior, and if she is easily restrained by the Minister of Magic, Fudge, she is likely to be at a disadvantage.

And Snape has a vendetta against Sirius, and he is not the right person...

So he chose Ivan Hals completely out of desperation, because he couldn't find a more suitable person, but fortunately, it seems from the results that he didn't choose the wrong person...

Snape couldn't stand Dumbledore's crazy words, and he was eager to ask the other party how he could fulfill his promise in his current state.

It's just that Snape finally held back and didn't say anything, he understood that this old man had been seriously injured in order to completely destroy the Dark Lord, and he didn't have any reason to blame the other party...

After leaving a few words of reminder, Snaplisso shook his sleeves and left, and there was once again a lonely old man left in the huge headmaster's office.

Dumbledore pondered alone, but he didn't think about Horcruxes anymore, and his current state was not suitable to search for the whereabouts of the next Horcrux for the time being.

Dumbledore directly set his eyes on the two deathly hallows on the table, he hesitated for a moment and picked up the Elder Wand, used his magic to draw a vertical line on the desk, put on the ring again, and added a circle to the vertical line....

Eventually, Dumbledore thought of Harry's cloak of invisibility and added a triangle to the outside of the vertical line and circle.

The faint magic fluorescence is linked together to form a strange pattern like a triangular eye, the difference is that the middle of the pupil is not an eyeball but a vertical line!

"The Elder Wand... Resurrection Stone... Cloak of Invisibility! Dumbledore whispered the names of the three Deathly Hallows, pondering what their mysteries were...

Legend has it that whoever possesses all the Deathly Hallows will become the master of the Grim Reaper...

But in addition to the resurrection stone he had just obtained, the other two deathly holy weapons he had studied in depth during his long-term possession.

However, nothing came of it, as if the two Deathly Hallows were just powerful alchemy items, which once made him doubt the authenticity of those rumors.

"Having it all means you need three pieces to assemble?" Dumbledore stared at the pattern, and a thought occurred to him, perhaps something strange would happen if the three Deathly Hallows were put together...

But the Resurrection Stone suffered some damage during his destruction of the Horcrux, and I don't know if it will have an effect...

......

At the same time, in Gryffindor's common room, surrounded by a large number of books, Harry, who was a little dizzy to read, finally couldn't help but explode.

"Oh my God! Why did I spend so much time learning about British International Law and the Muggle Protection Act, which had nothing to do with this case at all! Harry grumbled loudly.

It's just that his voice was quickly suppressed by Hermione, and the little witch stared at him and retorted.

"How can it not matter? If you open the book and take a closer look, Peter Pettigrew's killing of thirteen Muggles happens to be under the jurisdiction of the Muggle Protection Act!

And he used a mass destruction spell on the street to reveal the existence of the wizarding world, which is a violation of British international law! ”

"In addition to this, Peter was convicted of seven counts of war crimes as a Death Eater... These are also in British international law. ”

Hermione spoke eloquently, then looked at Harry in surprise. "I remember you've been reading it for almost an hour, and you haven't memorized these regulations yet?"
